April Net Worth – Up 9.29%!

by

Wow! April has been an awesome month for us. If we had months like April every month, we’d be debt free in no time. In all, we were able to pay down our credit card debt by $2,300.

Some of you may be wondering how April ended up being such a great month. Here are the unusual things that happened in April:

  • My husband sold an expensive piece of old business equipment.
  • I sold a year’s worth of advertising on here and received an upfront payment.
  • I worked overtime for extra money.

Combine the above with the normal money we have been contributing on a monthly basis and we paid off our debt by $2,300. I am still amazed how everything added up. I want every month to be April!!

With that, our net worth now stands at ($27,616). As always, you can see the whole picture at my NetWorthIQ profile.

May should be a great month too if we get our economic stimulus payment as scheduled. But I’m not holding out for it. If we manage to have the money to bring our credit card debt under the $10K amount, I am going to do it the first chance we get 🙂

Where’s My Stimulus Payment – IRS Site

by

I can tell by the visitors stopping by via Google that many people are wondering about the stimulus payments. We didn’t get ours yet, but then again we weren’t supposed to be in this first round anyways.  Soon enough, it will come.

Anyways, I found a section on the IRS website where you can “Get the amount and date of your Economic Stimulus Payment now!”:

Where’s My Stimulus Payment?

Big note on this, from the site (I added emphasis):

We recommend checking the Payment Schedule prior to using this application since your payment information will not be available on this tool until the time that your payment is scheduled.

So, if you are scheduled to receive your payment via direct deposit next week, you probably won’t show up in their system until next week.
